Question 71/ Boys will be Boys?
Dear Preschool Teacher,
My female preschooler is being picked
on by a male classmate who is nearly a year older. The teacher has
said nothing to me but my child is scared to go back and has missed a
few days. How can I fix this as fast as possible?

Question 72/ Teacher Times Two
Dear Preschool Teacher,
I have a question regarding having the same
preschool teacher two years in a row. My daughter is 3 1/2 and
in her first year of preschool. She will continue next year at
the same preschool, and I have the option of requesting a teacher.
My daughter and I like her current teacher, but I think she may
benefit from a new instructor and classroom. I am unsure what
the benefits of having the same teacher two years in a row versus the
negatives of having the same teacher two years in a row would be.
Do you have any ideas or opinions on this subject? Any help
would be appreciated!

Question 74/ Five Basic Rules
Dear Preschool Teacher,
I am a preschool teacher at a fairly new center. I
am trying to come up with 5 basic rules that will cover everything
that I want for the children. It sounds simple but I have been
struggling with how to word them so the children will understand and
also at the same time be appropriate for them.

3/1/01 Question 76/
Overly Shy
Dear Preschool Teacher,
I have a class of 20 preschool children
where I have a particular child who is very shy. He refrains from
doing any physical exercise, speaking loudly even for the roll call,
answering a question he is asked or even reciting a poem when his turn
comes. I notice him singing along with the rest softly, the moment I
look at him he stops. But his parents tell me he
loves coming to the school. But he is shy in front of outsiders.
How can I best help this child to come out of his shell. I have
noticed much change in him regards to his eating habits, solving
puzzles etc. but everything is done by himself
does not like even some child coming very close to him.

Question 77/ Teaching Assistant
Dear Preschool Teacher,
I will be a teaching assistant in a 3 year old
preschool room this year. I have been asked to take over the language
arts program. I was wondering what types of language arts
activities are appropriate for 3 year olds. I would like to do a
letter a week type of activities but I'm not sure if this is
appropriate for 3's. I have seen many of you post that shapes,
colors and numbers 1 - 5, as well as different social skills are most
important for 3's. Please give me some suggestions for language
arts for 3's.
Thanks,

Question 78/ Teaching Toddler ABC's
Dear Preschool Teacher,
My son is 26 months old. I need some ideas on how I
can teach him his ABC's and other children songs. He does not like
when I sing or play music.
Also while reading to him he always turns the page
before I finish reading to him. When should I expect him to start
listening to the whole story? (short one's of coarse)
